Gcc Cannot Find -lc

[Olivier]

evrything was fine, but when I lauch gcc from console  (gcc -o foo -lm foo.c), I ve got following error:

   "ld: cannot find -lc"

if I compile as root, i have got :
error while loading shared libraries: libopcodes-2.9.5.0.31.so: cannot load shared object file: no such file or directory

I try several workarounds without succes:
binutils & binutiks-dev ipk install
libstd6-1.2.2_arm.ipk install

I am not a specialist of gcc, but would like it to run in order to create my app, or to get source package et compile them.

Any help is welcome...

The error is saying that it cannot find "libc.so" in the path specified by $LIBRARY_PATH. If you are compiling on the Zaurus, you need to create a symbolic link from /lib/libc.so.6 to <path>/libc.so where <path> is in $LIBRARY_PATH. This may have to be done for a number of libraries: libm.so, libpthread.so, libncurses.so, etc.

p. s. If you are using zgcc 2.02, then you are not correctly using zgcc.sh. Say
" . <pathto>/zgcc.sh" before compiling. Note the dot.

Hi Jeffrey,

I tried to contact you directly in the past to report a problem with the way libc is configured in zgcc but I think it may not have reached you. There are standard libc functions not implemented in the shared library, usually the ones a user will notice are the stat related functions. libc.so should not be a simple symbolic link to /lib/libc.so.6 but rather should be a file containing something like the following:

Code: [Select]

/* GNU ld script
   Use the shared library, but some functions are only in
   the static library, so try that secondarily.  */
GROUP ( /lib/libc.so.6 /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a )zgcc has worked beautifully for me on many many packages after installing libc_nonshared.a and making this change to the way zgcc was configured. I did run into this problem repeatedly when there was simply a symbolic link in place.

i have a c3100 and i've encountered the same problem but I can't find libc_nonshared.a anywhere (its certainly not on the device or any feeds i've tried) ? can someone post it up? I'm runnin 2.95.2

I use the one from the Embedix cross compiler. There are links here.

alas all the links are fubar'ed on that page so I can't track it down. If anyone has a compatible 2.95.2 libc_nonshared then can post or get to me I'd appriciate it!

Sorry about that. The links on this Compiler Setup page work.
